I have site running with CMS Made Simple 102 (old version). Now I want to move my old site to a new server. I have backup whole database named cms102 using mysqldumper and successfully populate all tables with data on new server using phpMyAdmin. I had installed all php files in folder called CMS102 on old server which I copied as it is to new web server machine. Now When I access my CMS website on new machine I get following errors.

Code: Select all

The following directories must be writable by the web server:
tmp/cache
tmp/templates_c


Please correct by executing:
chmod 777 tmp/cache
chmod 777 tmp/templates_c
or the equivalent for your platform before continuing.

Please let me know, how to configure so that I can access my old CMS database. If there is easy upgradation process to new CMS version please let me know the steps.

you should give the mentioned folders 777 rights. You can do that in your ftp program. 777 means you can read and write and execute. It's about permissions.

Gonna ninja this topic for my question

I'm also planning to move our website to a new server. Atm we have 2 of our clients currently working on their sites that are hosted in subfolders on our server til their done. When they have finnished uploading the text etc i'm going to move them to their own servers.

So, what i have is one installation of cmsms in the root folder (our website), and 2 subfolders with their own installations of cmsms.

So basicly my question is. When I move our site, will that change anything on their side?

Or do i just follow the normal steps for copying to a new server, then repeat the steps for config.php and permissions for each site?
Anything else i need to know? Don't want to shoot myself in the foot here

Have you tried adding the install folder from the version you are running and doing either an upgrade or reinstall w/o writing tables to the DB?...

HI
hear the mark he is right, you have to run the upgrade (www.site.com/install/upgrade.php) to adjust everything right!

Best Regards

Hello,

May be you'd rather first upgrade (1.0.2 -> 1.1 ->1.2.5) then try to move ? back up before...
